Mm mm mm mm
Tell me something
Don't say that it's nothing
You're all over the place
Can you say my name
Say my name
Say my name
You been on my bumper
Now you acting
Like I'm buggin
You betta
Say my name
I ain't for the game
You got five seconds
For I drop you
Like it's nothing
Say my name
Say my name
Say my name
Say my name
Baby
Say my name
Say my name
Guys love Yo Gotti
They love to flex at the parties
They love to mess with emotions
Then they always go running
That's why I avoid commitment
I've developed trust issues
Thinking that you was different
Baby boy was I slipping
I tripped and fell into my feelings
That wasn't the mission
We was supposed to be chillin
Yeah
That's how it always happens
Now you acting green
What's that supposed to mean
Barely speaking to me
I will keep it pushing if you don't
Say my name
Say my name
Why you acting strange
You been on my bumper
Now you acting
Like I'm buggin
You betta
Say my name
I ain't for the game
You got five seconds
For I drop you
Like it's nothing
Say my name
Say my name
Say my name
Say my name
Baby
Say my name
Say my name
Now you can't speak
That boy got nothing to say
I try to check in with you
Cuz it's been a whole day
With no call or no text
But you been all on the net
I don't like how you moving
Baby boy don't forget
That once upon a time
We were strangers
You're in danger
Of being nothing to me again
I thought that this was different
We were building
Now I'm wondering
Should I stay
Say my name
Say my name
Why you acting strange
You been on my bumper
Now you acting
Like I'm buggin
You betta
Say my name
I ain't for the game
You got five seconds
For I drop you
Like it's nothing
Say my name
Say my name
Say my name
Say my name
Baby
Say my name
Say my name
Tell me something
Don't say that it's nothing
You're all over the place
Do you need some space
Why you being weird babe
Why you can't you
Just say my name
Oh
Say my name

I believed that our relationship was unique or special
We were building
We were working towards something together
Now I'm wondering should I stay
Now I'm questioning whether I should continue to be involved
Oh, say my name
Oh, acknowledge me and address me directly
